Testimonials

We were fortunate enough to meet Kelly Perkins at an open house back in 2015. We instantly had a strong connection which continued to grow as the months went by. We were not in a hurry to find our Laguna cottage and Kelly remained patient, yet steadfast with us. She would check in every few weeks or months to see how things were going as well as to periodically send us listings for properties that she thought we may be interested in. Of course, she was often correct. We looked at many properties with Kelly. She continually listened to our wishes, and we were all able to hone in on what we truly wanted. We made offers along the way, and Kelly was punctual, sensitive, professional, and always gracious. We never felt rushed or pushed into something that just didn’t meet our needs 100%. Kelly has the unique quality of being a lovely, kind friend combined with being a strong, knowledgeable Realtor. She knows Laguna Beach very well and was able to consistently show us the pros and cons of different sections of the town. We had extremely specific criteria, and Kelly understood and helped us meet them. When we finally came across the house, I think all 3 of us knew this could be “the one”! There were some issues along the way, and again, Kelly went to bat for us 100%. She represented our positions strongly with the seller and we are completely thrilled with our new home. We would highly recommend Kelly as a Realtor for any of our friends and family!

I am writing to thank you for helping to bring the sale of our property to its conclusion. Darlene and I truly appreciate the time and energy you have put into this transaction from beginning to end, We have felt that we were dealing with the “A” team. Although the process has been challenging given the Charitable Remainder Trust, we could never have reached our goal without your support. Your tireless work in showing our property and negotiating on our behalf is greatly appreciated. Kelly, you possess a style that is very engaging and full of good energy. We could not have made a better choice when selecting someone to represent us.

Kelly Perkins has been a blessing to our Family. Over the last 18 months, Kelly has worked with Caroline and me to first identify a home to lease and eventually a home to buy. Kelly made us feel like we were her only customers. Kelly knows the pros and cons of each Laguna Neighborhood and tailored our search to best meet our objectives. Over the last 18 months, it has become very clear to Caroline and me that Kelly values life and the lives of her customers. Working with Kelly never felt like a business relationship but more like we had a family member who just happened to be a Laguna Real Estate Subject Matter Expert. Kelly has connected our family with very competitive financing and construction contractors in Orange County. I would recommend Kelly Perkins to anyone who values integrity, friendship, and finding the best Laguna Beach solution for their family’s housing needs!

My wife and I recently completed a real estate purchase with Kelly Perkins in Laguna Beach. First, this was a somewhat complicated transaction as the seller was a trust, and I am currently in the middle of a major remodel of my current residence in Laguna Beach. Kelly helped us navigate through these turbulent waters with minimal stress. Her warm smile, steadfast reassurance, and quick responsiveness to questions or issues kept this transaction on point for an on-time close. In our world today, many people are simply focused on the transaction and the financial reward. Kelly represented someone who places the client at the center and their happiness with a successful stress-free transaction as a key goal. I run several businesses for a large portfolio company in the consumer goods space. Our foundation is based on financial excellence, operational disciplines, and an unrelenting focus on consumer needs. I was pleased to meet a company and an individual in Kelly who personifies similar values. I will be sure to recommend her to others looking for the finest professionals in the area.

Thank you for your outstanding professionalism and guidance with the purchase of our new home. You always made time for all our inquiries and addressed them instantly. Thank you, Kelly, for all you have done for us. we are truly grateful for all you did!

When we first started thinking about buying a house in Laguna Beach, we asked Kelly to help us out. We let her know what we liked, what we didn't and told her we really didn't want to be pushed. She heard us. On every detail. She never showed us homes that did not fit our criteria, she was patient, and she let us lead the way, while also filling in the gaps with information we needed along the way. When we finally found the house, Kelly was not a realtor so much as she was a partner. Every step of the way, Kelly was our advocate, she was the bridge between us and the escrow company, she communicated brilliantly with the seller's agent and she took care of things we could not imagine other realtors even considering. And best of all, she became a friend. The trust we have in Kelly is unparalleled. This is our fifth home purchase, and it was by far the smoothest and most stress-free experience we have ever had. We wish everyone could have this experience when purchasing a home.
